Good idea. Here is the deal: I ssh into my phone so that I can do the dbus-monitor in the background. I pipe it into a file and then click on an email in the inbox. I get a long delay during which dbus-monitor is pumping out tons of these:

Code:

method call sender=:1.71 -> dest=org.freedesktop.Notifications serial=99757 path=/org/freedesktop/Notifications; interface=org.freedesktop.Notifications; member=CloseNotification
   uint32 163
signal sender=:1.31 -> dest=(null destination) serial=99227 path=/org/freedesktop/Notifications; interface=org.freedesktop.Notifications; member=NotificationClosed
   uint32 163
method call sender=:1.31 -> dest=com.nokia.HildonSVNotificationDaemon serial=99228 path=/com/nokia/HildonSVNotificationDaemon; interface=com.nokia.HildonSVNotificationDaemon; member=StopEvent
   int32 165
method return sender=:1.31 -> dest=:1.71 reply_serial=99757
method call sender=:1.71 -> dest=org.freedesktop.Notifications serial=99758 path=/org/freedesktop/Notifications; interface=org.freedesktop.Notifications; member=CloseNotification
   uint32 162
signal sender=:1.31 -> dest=(null destination) serial=99230 path=/org/freedesktop/Notifications; interface=org.freedesktop.Notifications; member=NotificationClosed
   uint32 162

These look remarkably like the list of integers at the beginning of the file /var/lib/gconf/apps/modest/accounts/Mail@32@for@32@ExchangeID/%gconf.xml:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<gconf>
        <entry name="notification_ids" mtime="1281391489" type="list" ltype="int">
                <li type="int" value="163"/>
                <li type="int" value="162"/>
                <li type="int" value="160"/>
                <li type="int" value="159"/>
                <li type="int" value="158"/>
                <li type="int" value="157"/>
                <li type="int" value="156"/>
                <li type="int" value="155"/>
                <li type="int" value="154"/>
                <li type="int" value="153"/>
                <li type="int" value="152"/>
                <li type="int" value="151"/>
                <li type="int" value="150"/>
                <li type="int" value="149"/>
                <li type="int" value="148"/>

I don't know if the list is exactly the same, and if it is growing at all (though the update timestamp on the xml file is current, so it has been updated). So what is generating these notifications? If I delete the "li" nodes, will I break something? Will they get replaced?

I would love to hear any thoughts from anyone (including whether I should put all this into a new or existing bug in the maemo bugzilla) before I go around deleting from gconf files willy nilly. I pulled the modest source code from the repository (open source rocks!) but have not found anything of interest related to notifications, or to the dbus call above...but I have only started pouring through it.
